Government spokesman and Minister Dullas Alahapperuma said yesterday about 40 ministers would lose their jobs in the next UPFA government as President Mahinda Rajapaksa was determined to prune the cabinet to less than 40.

“This is a sacrifice the country expects from us as government politicians. A large cabinet was not to the liking of the  government or the people. The next UFPA regime will be totally transformed into a new type of governance aimed at taking Sri Lanka to a new era of progress and prosperity.

As a first step towards good governance, the cabinet will be much smaller than the one at present. We are ready to make sacrifices to assist President Rajapaksa reach that goal,” the minister told the weekly UPFA news briefing at the Mahaweli Center.
